A 28-year-old Houston man whose father is a deputy constable has filed a lawsuit claiming he was beaten unconscious by two jailers at the Harris County jail after being arrested on a minor trespassing charge.

Michael Alaniz was denied medical treatment for more than a day and was eventually diagnosed with a concussion and a broken nose, according to the lawsuit.

The two deputy sheriff's are unidentified in the lawsuit, which notes that Alaniz knows only a physical description of the two men.

Alaniz was arrested on a misdemeanor trespassing charge after going to the Metropolis & Extravaganza night club on Richmond Avenue on Oct. 23, 2015. The suit says that Alaniz's friend began acting erratic, and that Alaniz was handcuffed by an off-duty sheriff's deputy when he did not leave promptly. He was then placed under arrest by officers with the Houston Police Department.

The problems began after the Houston police officer left him at the jail and he began to be processed by the two deputies, according to the suit.

He was strip-searched publicly in an area where he could be seen by both male and female inmates, and said the jailers ignored his protests, the suit says.

He was then taken to a holding cell where he was slammed to the floor and beaten repeatedly until he was lost consciousness. The suit said that one of the deputies later apologized for the injuries, saying, "he was sorry, but that when told to do so, you have to do your strip search."

He later asked repeatedly for medical treatment but was not seen by medical personnel until 36 hours later. He was prescribed ibuprofen.

After being released from the jail on Oct. 27, Alaniz was taken to Ben Taub Hospital where he was diagnosed with a broken nose and concussion, the suit says.
